Perfect wedding venue!

I have nothing but great things to say about our party/wedding at 317 on Rice Park! Nicole R was amazing to work with throughout our event. She is incredibly insightful and knowledgeable about events (and weddings) that we put our full trust in her and her team and didn't have to worry about anything during the event!

We cannot stress how incredibly easy it was to work with Nicole, from the food & drinks menu/orders to the audio-visual team she used to help us live-stream our event. Her team and AV specialists were kind, courteous, and knowledgeable, and the way that Nicole supported us before, during, and after our event was better than we would have expected. Also, the food/drink selections were excellent! Everyone loved the food and the crab cakes were bar none. The bartender was extremely knowledgeable and prepared drinks to perfection.

The venue, 317 on Rice Park, is a wonderful location and is easily accessible. The street and garage parking are adjacent to the venue. The venue is ADA-accessible, and with double doors, we could easily traverse the entire building. Additionally, the decor was perfect and we did not have to do anything extra to spruce it up.

317 on Rice Park and Nicole and her team are gems! It was a perfect place for our non-traditional wedding and we had plenty of space to socialize and enjoy the day.

AMAZING! Book your wedding here

I really can't say enough positive things about our experience with 317 on Rice Park. We worked with TamMichelle and everything went so smoothly. We made our reservation in March for a Saturday in November, it was so nice to be able to book 6 months out where most venues are booked over a year out. The venue is beautiful, we were able to do our ceremony and reception there. They were very accommodating & flexible to what we wanted, food was great, service was great - I highly recommend!

Our venue was romantic, elegant, and magical on our wedding day. The unique style of 317 fit who we are as a couple and our wedding planner did everything in her power to make sure it stayed that way. She was phenomenal to work with and we were extremely happy with every penny we put into making it such a special ocassion with them.
